NVIDIA PhysX Visual Debugger 2.0100

NVIDIA PhysX Visual Debugger (PVD) is a standalone tool from NVIDIA Corporation for capturing, visualizing, and analyzing simulations built with the NVIDIA PhysX SDK. Connect your application to PVD to stream physics data live or record sessions for offline review. Inspect scene hierarchies, rigid bodies, articulations, joints, cloth, and particle systems; visualize contacts and constraints; and step through frames to diagnose instability, tunneling, or performance bottlenecks. With timeline and profiling views, property inspectors, and flexible filtering, PVD helps you validate behavior, tune parameters, and optimize your physics pipeline across platforms that run PhysX.

Key capabilities:

• Live streaming or offline capture of PhysX simulation data
• Frame-by-frame playback, scrubbing, and stepping
• Visualization of shapes, collision geometry, contacts, centers of mass, and sleep states
• Detailed inspection of joints and constraints, including limits and drives
• Performance insights for broadphase, narrowphase, and solver phases
• Search, filtering, and bookmarking to focus on relevant entities and events
• Lightweight integration via the PhysX SDK’s PVD connection for quick setup

Ideal for game developers and simulation engineers, PVD provides a clear, interactive view of what your physics simulation is doing and why—so you can iterate faster and ship with confidence.
